Nicole & Casey
Wedding Party
Allison Bremer
Maid of Honor
Nicole and Allison became best friends as suite-mates during their freshman year at Hofstra. Allison transferred colleges just after freshman year, but they remained best friends. She was one of the first to hear about "this really great guy" Nicole met years ago... and has seen their relationship develop from the first night they met through today. Through life's ups and downs... Nicole and Allison have grown together despite their miles apart.
Michael Neaton
Best Man
It can be difficult to put into words the bond you can have with someone who’s helped to shape your life for the past 15 years. It’s tough to envision how different that relationship was at the start and how insignificant those moments can feel now. So rather than paint a picture of the past, I’d rather speak to our friendship in the present. Simply put, KC is one of my best friends and one of my favorite people in the world. His respect and appreciation towards his friends and family is inspiring, and I am grateful and honored to be part of his life. Now, let’s get this bread.
Giavianna Romano
Maid of Honor
Nicky and I have a nine year age difference. Being her little sister, I never missed a beat on driving her crazy. Although we have very different personalities, we are a lot alike in other ways and I’m grateful to have her as my sister and role model. Since the day she brought Casey home, him and I connected on a whole different level. We are so much alike and always have so much fun together. Our bond consists of fun, friendship, respect and I’m so happy to call him my brother.
Robert Williams
Best Man
KC and I have been friends for almost 20 years. From living next door to each other, to weekend trips between Marist and Siena, to now our longest distance apart between New York City and Boston – no matter the distance we have continued to be best friends. One of KC’s remarkable qualities is the ability to bring people together. He is a huge reason why many of us from Monroe are still so close. He truly cares about all of his friends and family, and I am incredibly proud to be his friend and be with him as he takes another great step in his life.

Bridesmaid
I am Nicole's Big Sister. She is also the Aunt to my 3 kids Isabella, Adrianna, and Avery, as well as his godmother. We have shared so many great memories as kids together from birthdays, holidays, to summer fun and family time. As we have grown we have made so many more and she has been a part of my best life moments. I couldn’t be happier to be part of hers. Nicole has the biggest heart and the sweetest soul, she has accomplished so much and continues to. I am so proud of her and admire her so much. Being a part of her special day, becoming a wife and starting this next chapter with an amazing guy like Casey is truly special. So very excited and happy for you both.
John Carabetta
Groomsman
Mutual friends and a passion for gaming solidified Kevin and John's friendship. From games to work to life, they constantly discuss and support each other's crazy ideas. John enjoys and looks forward to more nights of ramen, Rock band, and 1 AM movies with Kevin and his bride to be!
Sarah Garson
Bridesmaid
Nicole and Sarah met as suite mates their freshman year of college at Hofstra. The two of them, along with Allison, shared all the fun and craziness the first year of college brings. Sarah ended up moving/transferring back home to Boston, so you can imagine how thrilled she was when Nicole announced that her and Casey were moving to Newton, Sarah’s hometown! Sarah enjoyed rediscovering her closeness with Nicole, getting to know Casey better, and being an Auntie to baby Ruby during their time together in the Boston area. Now based in Denver, Sarah is so excited to be coming back east to be a part of Nicole and Casey’s amazing weekend!
Jeremy Neaton
Groomsman
Casey and I grew up as best friends and neighbors in Monroe along with some of the other groomsmen. From pickup sports to reenacting Lord of the Rings scenes, we were always having fun in the neighborhood. The fun still continues today despite the distance college and life afterwards brought, and I am very thankful to have a friendship like his.
Meredith Nadeau
Bridesmaid
I met Nicole in middle school when I attended my first football game. There was some drama going on (as it does in middle school) and Nicole yells out to break the tension “Who like’s Blink-182!?” Of course, I said “me” and from there we were besties and bonded over music throughout high school. We’d go to shows (where she first laid eyes on Casey) and were in a lot of the same classes. We both chose the same college too and even continued our music adventures in Hofstra Concerts! Casey would travel in to help out too as an honorary member. So excited to see you marry your best friend.
Joseph Rossi
Groomsman
Joe and Casey met at Siena College as freshmen roommates. They developed a strong friendship and went on to live together through the majority of their collegiate career. They spent their time with trips to Red Robin & ordering D.P. Dough while watching Breaking Bad in its entirety. After college they have remained close and always make time for visits every few months, and the frequent phone call to catch up.
Kellie O'Dea
Bridesmaid
Kellie is sister of the groom and future sister-in-law of the bride! Kellie met Nicole after her and Casey’s second date and knew she was a keeper right away. Since then, they’ve bonded over their mutual love of country concerts and dogs!
Christian Veola
Groomsman
Christian and Casey met when Kellie introduced him to the family. Since then, they have gotten closer at family events, and always make it a point to meet up when there's a Bruin's game and they're visiting the city. Both salesmen, they got along well from the start, and have built on that friendship every chance they get.
Kayla O'Donovan
Bridesmaid
Nicole and I met in 2012 at lake compounce right when Robbie and I started dating. I am usually extremely shy and Nicole was so friendly and welcoming to me that it became a really easy transition to an already very tight nit crew! Since then Nicole and I are always planning our next adventure as a group, whether it be trips to the cape, Florida, or visiting each other in NYC or Boston and hanging out with our pups! Now we’re on to her next adventure of marrying KC and I am so excited to be a part of their day!
Brandon Warman
Groomsman
KC and I have been friends since before we knew how to spell the word friend. I'll never forget the days playing in the yard and late nights video gaming in the basement. His house was a second home for me and his family I consider family. We've managed to be close friends since childhood despite living over 1000 miles apart for the past 14 years. Gaming played a huge part, and so did our quirky traditions like sending the same birthday card accompanied by pages of the accumulated handwritten letters back and forth to each other on our respective birthdays. KC will forever be one of my best friends and I look forward to sharing more memories with him and his beautiful wife to be, Nicole, in the years to come.
Kate O'Dea
Bridesmaid
Kate, sister of the groom, has known Nicole since Casey first brought her home all the way back in 2012! I have loved watching your guys relationship develop from the start and I knew Nicole was a keeper when she stuck through Casey’s afro/justin bieber/overall mess hair phase....Seriously I couldn’t pick a better fit for his crazy personality than Nicole & I am so excited to have another sista in the fam!!! Love you both xoxo
Jhenna Zepeda
Bridesmaid
Nicole and I met my Freshman year at Hofstra through Hofstra Concerts. We bonded over music and before I knew it she had become one of my closest friends. Her and Casey have always been one of my favorite couples and became my "friend parents" who let me always tag along. Even when Nicole was in UCONN and then they moved to Boston, we've maintained our friendship and when we see each other it's like no time has past. From last minute meetups in Chicago, to being named Godmommy to little Ruby, these two lovebirds have become such an important part of my life. I am so incredibly blessed to have these two amazing people in my life and I cannot wait to celebrate with them on their special day! There are no two people more meant for each other. Love you Nicole and Casey!
